A Lumana Tribute to: Vickie Lynn Marshall (Stage Name: Anna Nicole Smith)
November 28, 1967 – February 8, 2007

We here at Lumana.com extend  our  warmest sympathies to Anna Nicole's family, friends and fans.

If you are like me then when you used to think about Anna Nicole, you thought TRAIN WRECK. I remember when she first appeared in the spot light, I thought she looked amazingly like Marilyn Monroe. She was breathtaking in the guess ads. I also remember her battle over the inheritance of her husband, an 89 year old senior citizen after he died. Well, those were probably the brightest days Anna Nicole had. She went from small town stripper, to playboy, to guess, and then into our homes via her show on MTV. She went from an itsy bitsy size to a plus size model and then back to teeny weeny. Her life was as unpredictable as her weight.

I liked thinking about her as the train wreck. I liked thinking about her as the carefree blonde she portrayed in her interviews. To think of her last days makes me feel like life sucks and it is really unfair. I thought she had everything… she was beautiful, she was carefree and reckless.

After her son died, I started to look at her differently. How difficult it must to lose your child, and on top of that, the only person who probably knew her and loved her the best. Then a few sad months after her sons death, the birth of her "fatherless" daughter, and lawsuits, Anna Nicole died, I think the cause for death was a broken heart. What a cruel world.
